Environmental Justice = public health outcomes
-Across the US, race is the most significant
predictor of a person living near
contaminated air, water & soil

A CALL TO ACTION IN PUBLIC SERVICE
The lessons of Flint, Michigan in 2015/2016 lead contamination in the public
water supply ultimately remind us that Environmental Justice is a Public Health
and health disparity question. When Public decisions are based solely on
economic outcome without a lens of what potential racial and social impacts are;
communities of color, immigrant and refugee, low income and low English
proficient communities pay the price with their overall health – disproportionate
to the general public.
Seattle City Light is a Public Utility – as part of a municipality that has centered
our commitment to public service to be inclusive to all communities that live in
the City of Seattle we must shift to using the lens of Race and Social Justice
within all the programs we provide.

HOW DO WE MOVE FORWARD?
• City of Seattle’s Equity & Environment’s Vision and
Goals: Integrate and elevate environmental justice

oAll people and communities benefit from Seattle’s

oCommunities most-affected by environmental injustices
are engaged in Seattle’s environmental priorities,
designing strategies, and tracking progress.

income and limited-English proficiency individuals have
opportunities to be part of and leaders in the
“mainstream” environmental movement.
